I think I heard something about clock/timer problems on PPC a long time ago, 
but could never track down an issue.  Wouldn't it be best to remove RTC on 
PPC or document the problem with a (read help) or something?

Is the PPC RTC (as opposed to GENERIC_RTC) stuff automatically in there, or 
something?  Or is it this PPC_RTC that's broken?
